Thank you for being a voice of reason. People here are completely out of touch from reality

This post is going nowhere because it doesn't have realistic backing of anyone significant. So no, this post isn't going to change anything, even if I decide to sacrifice my job for some rando trying to start a movement.

Wake me up when it gets any significant traction

Man it's going to be great when all 50 of us get fired from our jobs.

Wake me up when normies are on board. I'm not fucking up my life for nothing.

AOC says she's worth less than $500,000 after kickback claims — and seems to get kudos from Trump fans in response in c/politics@lemmy.world

Idk man, she is fighting daily for the middle class, and is consistently against billionaires existing. That's sort of her whole thing. If anything she seems more in touch with the issues regular people face more than anyone in Congress.

This feels like a bad faith attempt to find something not to like about her.

The job of being in congress pays 174k per year, so having some amount of money after doing that job for multiple years is inevitable.

AOC is one of the most outspoken leftists in the government. If anyone deserves the benefit of the doubt it is her.

Can you quantify soon here? I agree with you that they don't have good intentions, but I think that framing it as like, a planned genocide is not accurate. More realistically what can happen is more systemic injustices and consolidations of power to prevent anyone from resisting.

Thank you. It's fine for people here to like these kinds of things, I'm not opposed to that. But be realistic. This will never be the public standard.

Remember a timer! in c/adhd

This. I put protein shakes in the freezer bc they taste better the colder they are. They aren't good though if you freeze them then let them thaw, so it's a pretty high risk game. I try to remember to set a 30 minute timer on my phone whenever I do it.

Android Controller Support in the New Update? (lemdro.id)
 

lolll just kidding I've completely lost hope.

Exclusive controller support on mobile platforms is absolutely a set deal they have with Apple.

Telegram X reactions (lemdro.id)
 

Yo,

Does anyone know how the "quick reactions" in telegram X work? On the normal app, you double click the message, and your preset reaction bops in. It doesn't seem to work the same way in X. There is a setting for it, but I have no idea how to get it to work.

Thanks!

I've been watching a lot of HeathyGamerGG lately. Is he good? (lemdro.id)

For those who don't know, he is a twitch streamer/youtuber that talks a lot about mental health, specifically for gamers and people in the internet generation.

In some videos, he does "therapy sessions" (technically they are not for legal purposes, but they definitely feel like therapy) with various people in the twitch/youtube sphere. I am really interested to hear the perspective of different therapists regarding his content.

Are his interactions with people similar to what you see in real therapy sessions? Most importantly, would it be worthwhile studying how he conducts these sessions and learning from them?

Thanks for any insights!

What would happen if we put a giant glass tinted dome over each city? (lemdro.id)

In this scenario, we aren't trapped in the dome. There are openings and doors, so we can get out, cycle in fresh air, etc.

Is this a viable ~~solution to~~ way to avoid the effects of climate change? Would it be cooler in the dome? Would there be any negative repercussions? Would clouds form inside the dome? Could it rain in the dome? Would the rain be more toxic than usual because car fumes wouldn't dilute as well? Could outside lightning break the dome if it got struck? Would there be a single point in the dome that the sunlight would be directed to that everyone would just have to avoid, else they just burst into flame?

Sorry but I have so many questions about this. Apparently there was a show about the situation, but all I remember is that it wasn't very good. Hank from Breaking Bad was in it.

How do therapists avoid feelings of burnout? (lemdro.id)
 

I was thinking about this today, and would love some kind of feedback from practicing therapists. How do you avoid burnout?
